I'm not a fan of the 'posting it in the thread' idea. I like the way it was done last Tourney when every entry and score was posted in unison using the spoiler tags. That way, if there's a particular match/promo/entrance/whathaveyou that one wanted to see/read again, no one has to go scrolling through several pages of stuff to find it and of course, with the spoiler tags, you only read what you want and don't have to go all the way down a post to find what you're looking for.
Plus, I feel posting all the entries in their entirety gives more of a competitive feel than actually posting them individually. In a legitimate competition, you can prepare for the opponent all you want - watch tape, scout players, read analysis, etc. But when rivaling forces meet on that one particular game day, anything can happen. I kind of feel like if people post it would spoil that. And for me personally, I feel more motivated writing something that I feel has to compete with everybody rather than just who has already posted.
Oh, and since the deadline is Sept. 11, you may as well disqualify Melvis. He probably won't post until, like, Thanksgiving. #CheapHeat
If my opinion counts for anything - Leave it until every entry has been sent in and judged and post them all at once with spoiler tags and whatever. Adds a lot more suspense and saves a lot of shifting through entries if you want to go back later on and read a certain one or two entries. But do as you please, KingRo/Brye.

I really hope people haven't entered this for the sake of a bloody coloured username. I don't need that, as a matter of fact if I were to win, I'd reject it. I only entered this for a bit of fun and because I enjoy writing.
That and to put the so-called "King" in his place. #BiggerJobberThanStoj
In any case, I already have my idea set for this one, so its only a matter of getting around to actually writing it. I'll be postponing it to the weekend though. Looking forward to see if I can actually get through the qualifier this time around. Good luck to everybody else
Just finished my entry. :P Hope it is good enough to scrape by into the next round.
Also, lol Kingpin. I didn't even know about the user title reward when I entered, my reason for entering was so that if I won I'd feel I've actually accomplished something here after a bunch of decent attempts and failed attempts. But I love colors so that user title color change sounds nice to me. (Unless it ends up being pink...xD)

I'm going to be waiting until Sunday night to start on mine probably. It's not exactly last minute, but pretty late. It's the only day I actually have time for anything, having school and working and doing ultimate frisbee four days a week
